This place has been in my family for Generations. My grandparents brought their kids, and us, and now I get to bring my kids here also. This is one of THE FRIENDLIEST places on this Earth. Small little camper community and some year round residents stay.
This place is day pay only 5$ with boat rentals, food, drinks, ON SITE HOOKUPS for RV's and TENT camping right by the water! Rules? ITS VERY RELAXED!! As long as your aren't bothering your neighbors, or creating a mess.. It's basically fair game for anything.
Fishing, lots of it all around the lake, my cousin has caught some HUGE bass, we've got turtles, catfish and dogfish, snails for the kids to find on the shores, frogs and an OSPREY lives close by and hangs out at the beach also! There is TONS of nearby nature for the kids to FREELY explore comfortably. With this place being such a community of campers, the kids are always watched and looked after by your neighbors too.
There is a store on site, the Kitchen is down for right now, but it is a full side snack bar kitchen, fries, mushrooms, chicken nuggets, hot dogs etc. A Cotton Candy machine is in the store also! Arcade and tons of playground equipment for bigger kids and little ones! They also have a GIANT Swing set, those babies can really get high AF.
There is ONE main bathroom by the RV washing station, Split up men and women's sides, they do include a SHOWER too but I believe it is only for people staying overnight, the shower section is partitioned off from inside the men and women's bathrooms with a lock. The bathrooms are definitely outdated and could use some fixing up, better lights inside so its not so dark, I know a few kids say its creepy in there LOL My daughter included. Let's not get mistaken though, it is fully functional and clean!
It is about 20 minute drive from Walmart even though you feel a million miles away from City Life while your there.
The lake is PRIVATE and it is very cleanly kept! NO GAS MOTORS, only trolling motors are allowed here, canoes, kayaks are PERFECT, paddle boats, blow up rafts even.. this lake is perfect. Lilly pads on the fishing sides, the whole entire back section of the lake is a wetland, so there are no houses to look at while camping, only nature. (Yes there are houses around the lake but none directly across from the beach scene)
Overall its a 10 out of 10. Highly recommend. Even doggo's are welcomed around here =]
